At the end of each month, I will go through and evaluate the progress I made on the goals I post at the beginning of the month.

For February:

Health:Find a new doctor to help with pain

I met this goal. I found a doctor that I am pleased with and who will act as a case manager for all the specialists I will see. I expect this to be a long lasting relationship.

Financial:Save $1000 in an emergency savings fund in a high interest savings accountSave $1000 towards the purchase of a car in a high interest savings account

I met one of these goals and struck the other. I am no longer saving for a car; instead, I am saving to move to a nicer apartment that will eliminate the short term need for a car. I did fully fund an emergency savings fund that I am keeping at ING.

Debt:Submit all paperwork to hospitals and doctors to reduce bills and work out a payment plan

I just need to drop this paperwork in the mail.

Overall, I think this was a successful month in terms of achieving my goals. I am making financial progress and keeping things under control.

About Me

I'm slowly journaling my experiences recovering from $65,000 in debt, dealing with chronic pain, and attempting to rebuild a life. I began writing after I delivered a child conceived through rape, only to have my child die hours after birth.
